In response to the ongoing arms race with the United States, the USSR saw a surge in industrial activity. The relentless industrial hunger of this region created the need for more factories and of course, the requirement for illuminating this growing industrial landscape. The advantage of these smaller lights was recognised by factory owners looking to re-model their facilities – these lights could simply be added or taken away to adjust the overall lux levels.

During the restoration of each fitting, the glass dome was painstakingly re-polished, the steel enclosure re-enamelled and the latticework cage stripped and lacquered. These processes have resulted in a run of very pretty lights with a finish so refined they are arguably of a higher quality now than when they rolled off the production line in the 70’s.

Each pendant arrives complete with its restored ceramic E27 lamp holder, one metre of black cable, one metre of steel chain and a ceiling mounting plate. Complete and ready to hang.
